The accommodation is a typical house in the area, completely built in “white Majella stone”, overviewing the village main road.
The atmosphere is fascinating, as the silence lets you hear the sounds coming from the surrounding nature, almost uncontaminated...
This uninhabited village offers a unique experience, really one of a kind, for no more than 10 people hosted in our b&b.

Alessio was very welcoming at his B&B in the quaint village of Roccacaramanico. We are quite used to fumbling through our Italian but Alessio enlisted a local to translate. He made sure we had everything we needed and even checked in on us to ensure we had the heat on during a couple frigid days. Their place was wonderful and I would happily recommend Lu Candon to any traveler searching for a peaceful retreat amongst the picturesque mountains of Abruzzo. Grazie Alessio!

The B & b "Lu Candon" propio is located on the main street of the beautiful village of roccacaramarico. The structure is of recent restoration, but still retains the typical character of homes in the area. Very nice and cozy shared living area and great room where we stayed. Cleaning and impeccable precision. The owners are very polite and professional; Available for anything. There consiglo to try the inn, always managed by the owners of the B & b and enjoy the beautiful spectacle that nature offers all around.

Our stay in Roccacaramanico was just perfect, Alessio and his family made us feel so welcome. It is the village of my Nonna and Nonno so was very special to stay there. The house is beautiful with all required amenities. We had a beautiful traditional Abruzzo meal for dinner and a lovely breakfast. Thank you again Alessio and your family for your hospitality.

My family and I will never forget our time in Roccacaramanico and especially at 'Lu Candon'. Alessio and his entire family was so incredibly kind to us. We arrived late Monday night to a warm hello and a delicious meal made by Alessio's sweet mother. Our 15 year old dog Bella traveled with us and she felt completely at home. I have recommended Alessio's B&B and Roccacaramanico to everyone we know!

All the amenities in the center of one of the most pristine natural landscapes of Europe . The house , on three levels , it's all made from Majella stones . Recovered in its original design , inside it stands out the combination of tradition and modernity . It has two bathrooms and three bedrooms. You will be staying in a place where time has stopped, and enjoy a unique experience in a welcoming, comfortable and intimate house

In the greenest part of the greenest region in Europe, while walking in the wood you can easily meet wild animals. 1000 mt on the sea level, but the adriatic sea is only 30 minutes by car! Surely one of the most beautiful old village in Italy. Anything else?

Roccacaramanico is a wonderful place and Giuseppe an exceptional host. The house is just a gem. We really relaxed and the activities that have been recommended by Giuseppe are really interesting. Certainly we are booking again as soon as possible.

Pierpaolo2016-04-12T00:00:00Z

The best place to stay in Italy. The house was perfect and just as shown in the photos. Roccacaramanico is the most charming place and perfect for our family to relax and explore the walks. Just wonderful.

Rachael2017-04-17T00:00:00Z

The property was very clean and equiped with everything you might need for a visit to this wonderful village. The views are magnificient and the town was a joy to wander through. We saw a few day trippers and spoke to the locals but in general this is an isolated town and very peaceful. There was a welcoming bottle of wine and savory snacks which we really appreciated. The house was also visited by the neighbourhood cat and local fox! Thank you Giuseppe, your home was very nice.

Jocelyn2017-05-25T00:00:00Z

Giuseppe has prepared so that our reception was magnificent. We found a welcome bottle of wine and his colleague to explain the entire operation of the house. Beautiful village, at the end came the snow. If I have to find something negative, the conventions: one of the restaurants could not find any, and for a 10% have asked 3 different people, and the bar on the way back, he would have to have our breakfast paid for by Joseph, but who he pretended not making us pay. very recommended place to those who have children, like us, they can let them run in the "road" there is no circulation of cars.

Raffaello2016-12-30T00:00:00Z

Highly recommended! Accommodation looks like in the pictures, clean and comfortable and the little village is just wonderful with very nice people. Giuseppe was very helpful und friendly :) thank you

Diana2016-08-04T00:00:00Z

Roccacaramanico is a place suspended in time. The nature that surrounds it is pristine. Joseph is a very helpful and friendly, and made us feel at home. Highly recommended to those who want to reestablish contact with nature!

Valentina2016-02-09T00:00:00Z

exciting holiday in a special place: priceless silence in the evening and overnight. A wonderful opportunity for those who want to slow down the pace of life, regaining possession of essentiality of things: for us it was a great family experience. Joseph proved to be a master of careful and efficient home.

Gege2016-06-18T00:00:00Z

Excellent host, disponibilissmo for all requests of the house and tourist and territory. Lovely place to take your breath away, the house then it'll wrap like in a real nest of Pascoli. Extraordinary combination of rurality and furnishing wisdom. Not really miss anything: atmosphere, warmth and the healthy living of a village. Lascistdvi guided by giuseppe tips and decide already: nin wondering where does the road, follow it and walk only!

Hospitality, warmth, attention to detail, linen that smells of laundry, have the right ingredients to make your stay in this house just perfect and relaxing. Great for those who love to travel with their children, in fact nicknamed by me and my son "House of the Fairies."

Magnificent experience on all fronts! Roccacaramanico and 'an enchanting village that I recommend you visit at least one time in their lives! And council with the same enthusiasm Arturo and his wonderful house! The photos do not do it justice! Immersed in a unique setting, the large terrace of the house directly overlooks the Majella, I do not think there's a better view across the country! Tastefully furnished the house retains its character as a mountain retreat, "strong and gentle". The kitchen and 'equipped, the rooms are comfortable and spacious and the large fireplace and' a pleasure for the eyes and for the soul ..... would not even need to turn it on 'cause the house and' very hot! Arturo gave us many tips on what to do, see and eat! And they were all very useful! We will return as' soon!

Fabio2017-01-15T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay in Roccacaramanico. The house with its big fireplace is very cosy, especially in the winter. It is tastefully furnished and an ideal place to relax, falling asleep to the sound of the little stream running next to the house. Federico is a very nice, friendly and an extremely helpful host, who provided us with a lot of useful information beforehand, recommended a mountain guide, a place for horseback riding (which we loved), and simply had a solution to every question that occurred while there. Would certainly stay there again next time around!

Tiny mountain village with breathtaking nature and snow over fist :) shops are located in distant uncommon, but c`è un`accogliente tavern. the house has two beautiful double bedrooms, plus a double and a single.

Federico was an excellent host to say the least!! He showed me around Majella National Park and Roccacaramanico with great enthusiasm and was willing to help me have a terrific stay in ANY way possible!!!! He even arranged for me to have a private horseback riding tour of the mountains. Majella National park is one of the most BEAUTIFUL places I've ever visited, and there is no better host than Federico to show you all of its hidden wonder. (His dogs are also the sweetest!!) 10/10 recommend!

Courtney2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

When our previous plan fell through, I messaged Federico for a place for the same night, he replied almost straight away and from first contact he was really helpful. When we arrived, we were met by friends of his who were staying there (he was away for the evening). They were really friendly, made an exceptional dinner, and we sat and talked for a few hours. One of the nicest and most relaxing AirBnB experiences I've had, for me it was exactly what AirBnB is supposed to be. Also, it's near Roccacaramanico, which is a beautiful little hamlet that you should definitely visit.

Sahar2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Federico is a great host, and made us really feel like home. Everything is very relaxed, but you get to see a lot at the same time! We were hiking, and Federico was so great at showing us the greatest places in Majella national park. Majella House is a great place for relaxing and a central place for the greatest hiking tours you can imagine. It's really a great place, and you get all the help you need to explore the nature and the local community. The house is perfect for everyone: families, young people and couples. If you want to explore the Majella national park this is the best way to do it! We really recommend Majella House.

Sara2016-07-13T00:00:00Z

What else can I say about the Majella House, except absolutely beautiful! We were the only ones to stay that week, so we luckily got the whole house to ourselves. And thanks to Federico, we had the best time we had ever had in years. The moment we got there, he and his dog "Maja" treated us like we've known eachother for years. From there, it was one adventure after another. He introduced us to the cheese lady, who we bought freshly made cheeses (Pecorino, Ricotta, Mozzarella) from, and they were all very delicious and brimming with flavor. He took us around the local neighborhoods and then eventually we all relaxed at one of the cafes with their breathtaking view of the mountains. He took us hiking, while we picked and ate organic strawberries along the way. And please do not forget to swim in the beautiful river located behind his house, which is filled with all kinds of natural minerals. The mountains of Majella and its people emanated with such positive and radiant energy, that we didn't want to leave. We will definitely be returning to his place time and time again. Federico, thank you so much for the best time ever!!!

We enjoyed our stay at Marco's place and would recommend a trip here! The room is a bit dark and cold, but other than that quite nice. The mountains surrounding the town are very beautiful!

Mariacristina2013-11-04T00:00:00Z

Marco did a wonderful job of providing a comfortable place for us to stay during our visit. Although we had a bit of a difficult time getting to Sant'Eufemia once we found the house we didn't want to leave. Marco left us local olive oil and homemade wine, along with vouchers for breakfast at the local bar and for local mozzarella. Everything was delicious! When we ran into trouble getting to and leaving Sant'Eufemia Marco and his wife we incredibly helpful in giving us directions. The house was a comfortable space for 4 people. The views from the town were breathtaking. There were not many people in town and it seemed like a summer vacation town. I would recommend bringing some food if you travel here during the off season. Overall a wonderful stay, highly recommended!

Laura2015-03-02T00:00:00Z

The apartment was great. It was homey and large. Its in a great little small town with a few unique shops and very close to the mountains and trails. Can't beat the views in the area.

Sara2015-10-09T00:00:00Z

We arrived late at night and Marco made us find the house open with the light on! the flat is a classic mountain lodge with two floors with wooden floors and the typical tall and comfortable bed. We only found a bit 'wet, you should warm it up before. We have not had the pleasure of meeting Marco we thank so much for your hospitality. The only criticism I do is on the breakfast: in the bar near the owner did not tell us what it was for us and after a coffee and croissant, we went to taste mozzarella and yoghurt to a dairy farm near there. our own sins, we like the rich breakfasts;)

Rossella2016-09-18T00:00:00Z

Marco himself was unable to attend. The keys were in the bar. That caused some problems because the number in the ad incorrectly was.We were so at the wrong house. But we solved by telephone. It's a nice apartment. Only now it was still very cold (perhaps we were the first of the season?), And the heater was not working optimally. Sant'Eufemia is a very nice village, because every day we went for breakfast at the bar, with breakfast vouchers, we went even us feel at home. Thanks to the good bus service to Caramanico we did also make a nice walk.

It is just fine in Casale Roccacaramanico! If you want to cook there is more ... and more. Between us, even two foxes have liked the garden every night ... in this very charming village, outside the world but full of friendly people. The surrounding nature is unspoiled. Beautiful walks start at their doorstep, and lead in the high mountains or around the countryside and villages. I want to come back.

Federico has proved to be a very attentive, thoughtful and collaborative host. He has been able to guide us in so many ways to discover a place to visit: for those who want to be in contact with Nature (with capital N), those who need to reload the energies or simply escape from everyday stress, Roccacaramanico is a "chicca " unmissable. The house is exactly as it appears in the pictures: spacious, cozy, very suitable for children and with a lovely view. We highly recommend a stay at Majella House for those who wanted, thanks to Frederick's help, to discover the ancient flavors and customs of this beautiful mountain. Our experience lasted only two days, but we all agree that it is to be repeated with a much longer stay. Ps Children are literally mad at playing with Maya, Federico's dog.

Federico has made finding timely on our arrival and the house was spotlessly clean and tidy set in a dream location in the middle of nature with breathtaking views. Even we are having traveled a lot we found ourselves for the first time to describe with difficulty what we saw and the feelings that we tried. He could hear the "sound of silence" with the 'water of the stream a few meters from the house that accompanied the passage of time. It would be enough to define this wonderful our stay, but the icing on the cake 's got put Federico who with his kindness competence and friendliness made us discover the wonderful places that alone we will never have found. The dinner of local kebabs under a starry sky inlaid left us literally speechless making absolutely unforgettable week spent at Majella House. We will definitely be back to Frederick to discover new places of this paradise.

Marco2016-08-14T00:00:00Z

Majella House is beyond the expectation. Immersed in a garden of over 3000 mt - to which Federico dedicates so much love and passion - breathes an air of tranquility and peace. What about the strawberries picked up just outside the fence, or the tart which Frederick did to us for breakfast. We were pampered in the best of ways. The house is cozy, spacious and clean. Definitely for a week-end to go out in the open air in total tranquility.

Angelo2016-06-20T00:00:00Z

fantastic experience .... very cozy and warm home despite temperatures creepy, we with very small children we have not had any issues .... and then the place has little to say ... lovely !! Mount Morrone behind and the bitter mountain in front ... spectacular! regard Federico I must say that despite his young age is really a very prepared, helpful and very humble ... the top of the hosts !!! thanks for everything and see you soon!

Luca2016-01-03T00:00:00Z

Federico is a great host, friendly, friendly and always available, we found a warm home with the stove already lit, the photos make it very little compared to what is in front of it, the house itself is a small gem in the greenery. The possibilities are endless, from the many excursions possible, to visits to neighboring countries and also want some bitterness given the proximity to the bridge of Salle, a famous place for bungee jumping. The dogs' presence was very much appreciated by being able to stay with so many people and very protective against us especially at nighttime with wild animals. Suitable for families with children, groups and anyone who wants to spend a vacation in peace and tranquility immersed in nature but with all the comforts of home! Note: Mobile network reception is mostly limited to calls, but if not for business reasons, it is another chance to get away from everyday life!

The Village
Sant’Eufemia a Maiella
The village of Sant’Eufemia a Maiella is a little
medieval pearl in the heart of Abruzzo’s region.
It is situated within the Majella National Park,
at 900m above sea level, but no more than 50km away from it, between the mountains of Maiella and Morrone; surrounded by woods, valleys andrivers, rich in flora and fauna in a wonderful natural environment.
There are several Churches, Palaces, the Ethnographic Museum and the rich Botanical Gardens.
Rich of natural areas for relax and trails for hiking or mountain biking in the mountains of the National Park.
Numerous bus links with neighbouring
centres.
In a few minutes by car you reach Passo San
Leonardo (cross country skiing and downhill)
and Caramanico (Spa Centre).
Sant’Eufemia a Maiella has as district the splendid medieval village Roccacaramanico, at more than 1000 metres above sea level, abandoned in the ‘ 80 but is returning slowly to new life.
Sant’Eufemia as people there call it, is still a genuine and welcoming old village with traditions rooted into genuine food making and respect of nature.
No wonder is famous among locals for
the quality of its handmade cheese bread and first class meat.
Being in the heart of the beautiful Maiella
mountain, winter usually covers the village
with snow for few weeks per year, creating an
enchanting and silent atmosphere that invites
to long nights in front of the fire place tasting
quality local wine and meat after a skiing day,
while kids play snowballs and games with the
friendly neighbours.
On summer the place changes face and
morphs into a vibrant and active playground
for eno-gastronimc, historical and cultural
tourism, or simply to regenerate oneself into
nature, with long horse rides on the mountain
or hiking in the woods.

Being on a private road, car access is restricted if not completely inexistent, as well as any other form of urban noise, so you can experience quietest night sleeps ever.
The Region
It would be difficult to underestimate the national and international importance of
the Abruzzo Parks in the protection of the environment and of biodiversity, bearing in
mind that 75% of all Europe’s flora and fauna species are represented in this region!
Abruzzo: Europe’s greenest region
In Abruzzo, a third of the territory is set aside in protected areas:
three National Parks, a Regional Park and more than 30 Nature
Reserves. A visionary and tough decision by those who have made the environment their resource and will project Abruzzo
into a major and leading role in “green tourism”.
Abruzzo is distinctive for its prevalently mountainous nature,
with two thirds of its territory found at over 750 metres in altitude, but is also its coast surprisingly rich of dream like
scenarios.The “mighty mountain” Majella’s bed reaches down to
just a few kilometres from the coast, with the taller peaks ranged behind like a spectacular balcony; the rest of the territory is occupied by the stalwart hills, sloping gently down to the sea.
The narrow coastal strip, with the terminals of the river valleys, are the only lowaltitude plains in the region.
This tormented territory and forceful nature, with whom it is necessary to coexist, has allowed the survival – in its multiple
habitats – of a huge number of flora and fauna, configuring.
Abruzzo as a “green” region, the Italian treasure chest of Italian's biodiversity.
A huge number of animals and plants, once widespread on the entire Apennine, have found a final natural refuge in Abruzzo,
thus avoiding extinction. Several such cases, and emblems of the region, are the chamois, the wolf, the Marisca brown bear: three
species whose survival has depended totally on the local mountains; then we might mention the eagle, the lynx, the otter,
which still resides here
The region’s integrated network of Parks and Nature Reserves, with the incredible variety of its typical complementary natural
environments, have allowed the conservation and protection of a huge number of resident and migrant species. The overall size of
the sheer range of Abruzzo’s natural habitats (marine, river and lake,
woods, mountain, high altitude) means that today, more than ever, the region is a sort of wonderful biolaboratory that protects
nature and ecosystems.

"Un'oasi" if a perfect way to describe Daniele's home. We were in contact with Daniele a few days before our arrival because the address was not very specific - (once there it was easy to understand why,) and we wanted to find out how to locate the apartment. He immediately wrote back offering to either give us specific written instructions or offering to meet us at anytime we wished in the piazza of the village. We opted for the easy way and said it would be great to meet him in the square. Although Daniele was not there to meet us, his parents were! A truly lovely couple who had us follow them in our car to the apartment - which was only about two minutes away, but with the lack of street signs could have been confusing to find. Once at the apartment I immediately noticed the large bowl of fresh fruit on the table and the terrace with the mountain views. There was also spaghetti and tomato sauce in the cabinet incase we wanted to cook in. But who would want to cook in when we were told about the wonderful restaurant just a three minute walk from the house. We ate there every night and it was absolutely delicious. (Charles and I tend to travel on our stomaches - easy to do in Italy.) We were also told of a wonderful cheese shop that seemed to specialize in homemade yoghurt and told where we could buy other things we might need. They explained that internet was available for free in the main square next to the tourist office. The village of Sant'Eufemia is a perfect place to use as a base for hiking and exploring the surrounding area. Trail maps and books are available at the tourist office with helpful personnel to offer tips or make suggestions. As the reader can tell, if you are still reading, my husband and I had a wonderful time and Daniele's "oasi" truly is, just that.

We spent a quiet holiday week in Sant'Eufemia, from which it was easy to get to many hiking paths in wonderful places. Eufemia is a very nice country and the people are nice and kind. The house of Daniel was perfect for us, spacious, comfortable and equipped with all you need, we have not had any problems.

Stefano2016-07-03T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful time at Daniele's house! It is located in a charming village and provided us with the quiet sanctuary we needed after a lot of noisy Italian cities! We highly recommend staying there to experience the natural beauty of Majella National Park!

Kit2015-10-04T00:00:00Z

Apartment equipped with all comforts. Situated in a strategic location for hiking trails in the Park. We loved the availability of those who accompanied us to the apartment, finding then that's something in the fridge and in the cupboard is a point important favor. The balcony with a good view of the mountains we did spend their evenings. The bedrooms are airy and suppose well warm in winter. As expected, the bathroom was excellent. Say no more, but as host I highly recommend a visit for anyone who loves nature is good food.

Davide2016-08-22T00:00:00Z

This delightful house is located in the heart of an ancient pastoral village, still preserved with its old buildings made of stone, surrounded by green rolling fields hills, just 5km from the town center (Pacentro) and Sulmona, the historic town which dominates Valle Peligna.
The house is constituted by a single environment, large and bright, with small entrance and bathroom apart, equipped with a shower.
At the center of the room overlooks the double bed on the bottom of the seating area with sofas and old stone fireplace; next to the small kitchen with all appliances and a large wooden table, a historical tradition.
The furniture and the renovation of the building have been designed and manufactured in accordance with the surrounding environment, using only stone, wood and ceramics, maintaining the old ceiling with exposed wood beams and stone fireplace Majella.
Here you can enjoy the welfare of a peaceful stay in the countryside, however, when they have all the comforts of a modern home and the convenience of two city centers, a few km away. Just a short drive from Sulmona and ideal for couples.

Of "positive" for me there is only the location, 5 minutes from some paths for pleasant walks and decor of the house very well done. For the rest I found only inconvenience: - IN MICE PRIMIS at home and at 2am we made a scare (either define mouse is optimistic). - As I said mavericks, some docile but other far. - Request of deposit (100 €) for putting glue for mice on the floor after the host NOT warned us of our "tenants". (Point out that the host already knew that the house could be mice) Fortunately the team airbnb proved us right and we were exempt from payment. - Host initially pleasant and nice (although latecomer to the delivery of keys), but the bail application on, did not respond to our call as in good faith wanted to sort it out privately (wrong). Tips: - If possible, choose another house. - Never trust this host, take photos and report all of airbnb in case of problems. - Do not leave food for the house otherwise you will not see ever again. - You are as little as possible at home. - Park in front of the door to avoid being eaten. - Wash anything used for cooking. Conclusions: Holiday RUINED because of him. The next day I spent five or six hours on the phone with the team airbnb (COMPETENT AND PROFESSIONAL) to resolve the matter of bail. I slept six hours in two nights, the rest of the time I spent to apply glue to mice. If you really want to go in Pacentro, sleep in your car instead.

Davide2015-08-22T00:00:00Z

The apartment is located in a charming village in which to enjoy the peace and seclusion of the mountain and was equipped with the necessary amenities to make breakfast (cake prepared by Gabriella's mom is excellent). The house has been renovated with taste and respect for tradition. The position allows you to move nicely in the beautiful park of the Majella and you can reach Pacentro in the car in less than five minutes. Unfortunately we did not try the trails that start just a few meters from the house. Communication with Gabriella was perfect, if you ask the family restaurant is the best of Pacentro. A nice experience, in fact. Keep in mind, for those who did not want to go out at night, there are neither television nor radio. From previous reviews we knew the neighbor's dogs. The night they were held, it would be better they were even during the day, although we had no problems.

Gianluca2016-08-16T00:00:00Z

We were at the beginning of our three week trip. We arrived in the hamlet almost hanging in the air over a beautiful valley. A fabulous crostatta figs (gift mom Gabriella awaited us! Firewood evening, figs handy and cozy cottage country ... what more.

Francois2013-10-22T00:00:00Z

Gabriella met us in Pacentro and showed us the way to the house. She told us that we could contact her if we had any questions or problems. The house was in the countryside as we had expected with sheep, goats and dogs.

Joergen2015-07-01T00:00:00Z

The description of the house of Gabriella would add an adjective: "charming" because this is the feeling that. The house is exactly as described: cozy, clean, simple but a bit 'isolated, albeit 4 km from Pacentro (typical country Abruzzese complete with a medieval fortress and cobbled streets) and 6 km from Sulmona, which is instead a beautiful city with a center alive and full of shops, so maybe "not all" but only for those who love, maybe for a few days, feel and live a bit 'as "out of time". I love this atmosphere that at times I could not get much better. I am very happy to have been there.

cinzia2015-08-26T00:00:00Z

Were the days spent relaxing and quiet, thanks also to the surrounding environment and the characteristics of the village, silence, peace and armonia.Gabriella was available as his sister Margaret, who welcomed us and accompanied to the house. About the house I can say that it is essential and equipped with everything necessary for a pleasant stay. Recommended for those who love nature and who do not have huge demands because it is still a pastoral house and not a hotel.

daniele2015-07-22T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay. The cottage is very cosy and very nicely furnished. We felt very comfortable. There is a beautiful path behind the house where you can hike. Pacentro is a nice little town and you get to be very close to sulmona as well, where you can dfind anything you need. Very nice setting and the hostess was kind as well.

Anna & Antonello2016-09-13T00:00:00Z

It's the first time I leave a bad review, after 7 years traveling with Airbnb and at least about twenty home experiences in Italy and abroad. And this is the first time I do not go back to the house I chose, nor would I dream of recommending it to friends. The description of the house is definitely idyllic compared to reality: the house is in an uninhabited hamlet, with many crumbling houses, there is no one at night, day by day there is the owner of a land with some buildings that owns 6 Or 7 dogs, some of which are large and, at least fiery, left free to preside over the territory ... There is no outside space to enjoy nature, or rather that I normally do not fear the dogs I am Felt threatened to the point of giving up dinner for fear of returning to an uninhabited place at night and finding dogs out of their fence. The house is dark to the point that it has to keep the light lit even in the daytime, missing mosquitoes at the windows, so at least in July you have to choose between the dying of hot or having to undergo the assault of the flies. All in all, the host was not there and the guy who gave us the keys did not know anything about the home ... Definitely negative experience, so, and value-for-money quite inappropriate.
